Rostom, Mustafa (1997) Outsiders in a distant land : a case study of ten Islamic Lebanese families and their views on citizenship. Research Master thesis, Victoria University of Technology.

Abstract

This thesis is concerned with issues of ethnicity, identity and citizenship.

The key question which the thesis addresses is, in what ways can universal notions of citizenship be reworked to simultaneously address issues of justice and difference.
